    I Puritani a Londra: Rassegna Stampa (Maggio - Ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione*

    i, 2015 issn 2283-8716 I Puritani a Londra: rassegna stampa (maggio - ottobre 1835) Alice Bellini - Daniela Macchione* Si pubblica qui di seguito una raccolta di recensioni relative alla prima stagione dei Puritani1 di Vincenzo Bellini al King’s Theatre di Londra (21 maggio-15 agosto 1835). Le fonti utilizzate comprendono un’ampia varietà di periodici, senza tuttavia alcuna pretesa di completezza. I due omaggi alla memoria di Bellini aggiunti alla fine della rassegna, espressione di due differenti correnti critiche, sono stati scelti tra i vari articoli pubblicati a Londra alla notizia della morte del compositore; essi riassumono i primi sei anni di presenza belliniana sulle scene inglesi e illustrano la controversa recezione critica dell’opera italiana a Londra. I documenti sono presentati in ordine alfabetico per testata e cronologico per data di pubblicazione. L’ordine cronologico qui adottato ha il vantaggio di mettere in evidenza la particolarità delle somiglianze tra articoli pubblicati in diverse testate, dovute plausibilmente soprattutto all’autoimprestito, una pratica comune nella pubblicistica musicale londinese del tempo, così spiegata da Leanne Langley: Music journalists were obliged to be neither thorough nor objective; literary recycling and self-borrowing (often without acknowledgment) were common practices; most London music journalists, then as now, were freelancers working for more than one periodical, often anonymously and perhaps shading the tone and content of their writing to suit a given journal’s market profile;

    The Mountain Sylph: a Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera

    The Mountain Sylph: A Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera Rodney Stenning Edgecombe The Opera Quarterly, Volume 18, Number 1, Winter 2002, pp. 26-39 (Article) Published by Oxford University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/25463 [ This content has been declared free to read by the pubisher during the COVID-19 pandemic. ] The Mountain Sylph: A Forgotten Exemplar of English Romantic Opera rodney stenning edgecombe hree years after his second cousin, Giacomo Meyerbeer, brought Robert le Tdiable to the stage in 1831 (at the same time launching the career of the bal- lerina Marie Taglioni through its spectral ballet), the English composer John Barnett mounted his opera The Mountain Sylph at the Lyceum Theatre in Lon- don. The libretto, by one T. J. Thackeray, was even more closely connected with Taglioni than Barnett was with Meyerbeer, because it versified the plot of La sylphide (1832), the scenario of which tenor Adolphe Nourrit, the first Robert, had devised especially for his balletic costar. Although in his New Grove article on Barnett, Nicholas Temperley remarks that Thackeray’s libretto derived “from German folklore,” this is only partly true.1 Nourrit had loosely based La sylphide on a story by Charles Nodier, Trilby, ou Le lutin d’Argail (a Franco-Celtic enter- prise, therefore), swapping the genders of the protagonists (a goblin and a fisherman’s wife in Nodier; a sprite and a farmer in the ballet). More impor- tant, Nourrit reconceived the supernatural figure in terms derived from the Swiss physician Paracelsus and drew on the latter’s secondary mythology of the sylph (which probably portmanteaus “nymph” with “sylvestris”) instead of the primary figures of fairies or nymphs.

    Towards a Reflexive Paradigm for the Study of Musics in Australian Colonial Societies (1788–1900)*

    2020 © David R.M. Irving and Alan Maddox, Context 46 (2020): 51–73. Towards a Reflexive Paradigm for the Study of Musics in Australian Colonial Societies (1788–1900)* David R.M. Irving and Alan Maddox Let no one say the past is dead. The past is all about us and within. — Oodgeroo Noonuccal1 When contemplating the musical activity of past cultures across vast geographical spaces and from before the era of sound recording, music researchers are confronted with multiple challenges. They must take into account the memories stored in oral histories and textual sources, recognise the plurality of cultural influences and performance practices in complex networks of personal interaction, and grapple with the representational limitations of staff notation and struggle to interpret iconography before and after the age of photography. They must understand how sounds and emotions are linked to places and spaces, and explain how they move and migrate. * We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples mentioned in this article and the traditional custodians of the land on which the research for the article was primarily undertaken, the Gadigal people of the Eora nation. Thanks go to the University of Sydney for supporting this research through an International Research Collaboration Award (no. 63714). We are also grateful to the anonymous readers of the manuscript for their input and feedback, and especially to Graeme Skinner for generously sharing his advice and expertise. 1 Oodgeroo Noonuccal (Kath Walker), ‘The Past,’ originally published in The Dawn is at Hand: Poems (Brisbane: Jacaranda Press, 1966).

Felix Mendelssohn, whose 200th birthday falls on February 3, was the eldest of three composers who have always been grouped together as sadly shortlived Romantics: the two other bi- centenaries will occur next year. Schumann was a great admirer of Mendelssohn, hailing him “the Mozart of the nineteenth century”. Chopin and Mendelssohn met less frequently, but there was a close bond between the German and the Pole, whom he called his “Sciopino.” Reputation is a fickle, unpredictable thing. The two who were born in 1810 were modestly successful in their lifetimes, but have never ceased to be hailed as great masters ever since. Mendelssohn, on the other hand, had the misfor- tune of achieving the highest possible place in the contemporary Pantheon well before his untimely death. All kinds of forces, from Nazi anti-Semitism to the Bloomsbury Group’s anti-Victorian stance, contrived to bring his name to a low ebb in general regard by the mid-twentieth century.

Most of these songs were Inspired by Byron’s reading and deep appreciation of the Bible.
